TORONTO — Raptors Uprising GC point guard Kenneth (Kenny Got Work) Hailey has been named player of the week in the NBA 2K League for the second time in three weeks.

Hailey, who also won the award in Week 1, shot 60.0 per cent from the field (48-for-80) and 54.1 per cent from three-point range (20-for-37) as the Raptors downed Knicks Gaming on May 19 and Hawks Talon GC on May 21.
